Over the last four decades, the National Crime Prevention Council (NCPC) is proud to have played a part in promoting crime prevention and public safety in Singapore. Without a doubt, the Council's programmes have directly reduced the opportunities for harm and criminal wrong-doing to make Singapore a safer place for all. Our work has also contributed to Singapore's global reputation for its safe environment and low crime rate. This reputation, in turn, has been critical for our economic growth and investment.The Council comprises representatives from the commercial and industrial sectors, as well as from the public sector and the Singapore Police Force (SPF). The NCPC is incorporated as a charity and depends on donations and sponsorships to run its programmes and activities. It is registered as a society with the Registry of Societies. The NCPC is a catalyst, advisor and partner to mobilise the support of groups, organisations and individuals from the community to prevent crime. The objectives of the council are: - to raise the level of public awareness and concern about crime; - encourage self-help in crime prevention; - examine, develop and recommend crime prevention measures suitable to the public; - coordinate efforts of organisations in crime prevention
